Gewurztraminer Wine Tasting Notes
1998 Valckenberg Pfalz Germany Gewurztraminer Score: 83.0 "Full-bodied sweet lychee, slight bitter note in the background, good varietal definition, though rather heavy-handed. Serve well-chilled as an aperitif."
|
1998 Handley Anderson Valley Gewurztraminer Score: 92.0 "Beautiful structure and balance, a dry crisp Gewurz, with yellow rose and spice aromas and flavors, and a complex finish with a pleasant bitter nip."
|
1997 Navarro Anderson Valley Gewurztraminer Score: 86.0 "very floral, yellow rose, full body, just off-dry, spicy in the finish. Could use a touch more acid but its attractive."
|
1998 Lazy Creek Anderson Valley Gewurztraminer Score: 81.0 "Oddly the nose is reminiscent of some red berry, or perhaps a red variant on muscat, which follows through to the palate with some background lychee notes. Dry, well-balanced, clean finish. Pair with seafood."
|
1997 Husch Anderson Valley Gewurztraminer Score: 87.0 "Emphatically varietal, just off-dry with excellent balancing acidity and strong lychee character. "
|
1997 Husch Anderson Valley Gewurztraminer Late Harvest Score: 97.0 "Decadent-an orgasm for the mouth: beautifully balanced, sweet, complex honey flavors, orange blossom and spice. Incredible! 14% residual sugar."
|
1998 Chateau St. Jean Sonoma County Gewurztraminer Score: 89.0 "A classic off-dry style of gewurz with yellow rose petal aroma, orangae blossom flavor, good acidity and a pleasant bitterness in the finish. Makes a good match for poultry or spicy Asian dishes."
|
1998 Chateau St. Jean Sonoma County Gewurztraminer Score: 88.0 "A powerhouse with some body and punch. Yellow rose petals in the nose, sweet with some orange zest and a pleasant balancing bitterness added to the palate, good acidity and lychee fruit through the finish. Aggrevsive, flamboyent and a bit of a show-off, this is a wine best served as an aperitif. If you have to have it with food, try it with satay or curry."
|
1998 Hogue Columbia Valley Washington Gewurztraminer Score: 91.0 "A powerhouse thats also seductive - voluptuous, sexy, a perfume of yellow roses and tropical fruit. Crisp, just barely off-dry, intense on the mid-palate and spicy through an extended finish. First rate. Pairs well with any Asian dish."
|
1998 Fetzer Vineyards California Gewurztraminer Score: 87.0 "Fresh sweet lychee and peach flavors, tart and spritzy, with a clean finish. Always consistent and always a good value. Best as an aperitif or with Asian cuisine."
